[forums] URGENT - READ! Updated to 2.0.20

Hello all,

I have updated the forums to php 2.0.20.  Unfortunately one of the mods has seriously borken something so we are currently running a seriously stripped down version without any advanced mods.

The forums will be up and down throughout the day and I would advise everyone not to post for the time being in case we have to restore the dbase!

best,

dtw

OK - I have now applied the 1st ten patches and all seems to be well.  Will try 11 to 20 next.

I have identified the faulty patch - the forum will be down until it can be fixed.

Apologies,

Ok - I can't fix the faulty patch so it has not been applied and nor have the subsequent patches - please be prepared for problems.

The dbase my need to be reverted later - you have been warned!

Re: [forums] URGENT - READ! Updated to 2.0.20

Hmmm - I don't know what to do.  I'm not sure how likely a fix for my problem is within the time I have to apply it.  I'm not sure if i should just give up on that patch and re-patch without it.  But that means receating a load of patches...

For some reason, the forums feel quite a bit faster today on my end.  Not sure if it's the upgrade making it feel that way, or it's just a good day for internet connections.  smile

The extra speed is nice whatever's causing it ... I do miss all those big "mark forums read" buttons, though.

Re: [forums] URGENT - READ! Updated to 2.0.20

lol sure we'll sort it in the end...

No news on the fixes.  Do you think I have "advertised" the problems enough?  Can anyone say " I never knew there was a problem!"?

@dtw upload the clean files (anyway Arch use default theme so no graphic loss) then apply what u can apply one by one (phpBB sucks like hell when it comes to mods it would have been better to use SMF :'( )

One new issue is that sometimes the Google advertisment opens in a popup window. When I close it the whole Firefox  gets closed. Hm.

Speaking of which, the so-called "relevant" ads in there are currently offering me surgery...

The suggestion box only accepts patches.

C)Moderators

This should be fixed now.  Quotes made during broken period will stay broken - edit and save post will update.  This problem was actually due to a cock up upstream - idiots

Ok - I think it should all be fixed now.  Fingers crossed.  I had to patch upstream issues for mysql5 too.  Ignore forum is no longer avialable.  Sorry, Dusty :'(
